Explanation:

                               Original                                New

Assets                   $380,000                              $252,500

Sales                      $403,000                              $403,000

Net income            $28,250                                $28,250

Debt ratio                39.00%                                39.00%

Debt = Assets × debt % = $148,200                    $98,475

Equity = Assets − Debt =  $231,800                   $154,025

ROE = NI/Equity =      12.187%                               18.341%

Increase in ROE = 18.341%-12.187%

                        = 6.154%

Therefore,  the reduction in assets improve the ROE  (percentage point change)  is 6.154%
